No, not PPAP.

TPP.

Trump met with Japan’s Prime Minister Abe in New York last Friday. I don’t know what they talked about because the media was not allowed in on their meeting. But one of the big topics here in Japan, concerning his presidency, is the TPP. Trump doesn’t want to adhere to it. Abe does.

So in English, TPP stands for: Trans-Pacific Partnership (partnership among countries along the Pacific rim.)

In Japanese, as the above Yomiuri Kodomo Shinbun says, it is: 環太平洋経済連携協定
